CRT (Nominal 17-inch Mitsubishi Diamondtron aperture-grille CRT, 16-inch viewable image; 0.25 mm aperture grille pitch. Vertically flat screen, without a fixed native pixel matrix.)
Supported signal modes
Supported signal modes include 1600 × 1200 at up to 60 Hz, 1280 × 1024 at up to 75 Hz and 1024 × 768 at up to 85 Hz. Horizontal scan 30–85 kHz; vertical scan 48–160 Hz. These are selectable CRT modes, not a fixed native matrix or one native refresh rate.
Screen coating
Antireflective and antistatic screen coating

Weight with stand
20.8 kg
Size with stand
January 1999 maker datasheet gives 41.1 × 42.7 × 44.7 cm (width × height × depth); archived support sheet instead lists 18.9 × 16.5 × 16.9 inches (height × width × depth), an unresolved maker conflict
Weight detail
January 1999 M6221LL/A datasheet specifies 20.8 kg (45.9 lb); archived Apple support sheet instead lists 48 lb. The model-specific datasheet metric figure is used.
Translucent Blueberry and white enclosure; the later August 1999 Graphite revision has the same performance and internal circuitry according to Apple's service manual
Power and support
Power use
January 1999 datasheet specifies maximum 150 W operating, less than 15 W standby and less than 5 W with the computer in energy-saving mode. Archived support sheet instead gives maximum 120 W; this maker conflict is retained.
Power supply
January 1999 datasheet specifies 90–264 V AC, 47–63 Hz; these are mains ratings, not display refresh rates
Software
Maker announced the new Studio Display family on 5 January 1999; January retail precision is used because a distinct first-sale day is unconfirmed. January datasheet lists Power Macintosh G3 with Mac OS 8.0 or later. Brightness and contrast ratio are unpublished and omitted; no pixel density is assigned to this CRT.
